From My Inbox (weather, dogs, street art)

Posted on by Prior...

Well it is time for the November inbox share…. I put the slideshow in a short video –

1. Delancey Place highlighted some good news about gloomy weather (here):

Someone in Buffalo made an outdoor beverage holder:

3. Terrierman shared that “one of the things that sets a dog’s heart aflutter is the smell of their owners.”

Terrierman also provided a site for ZIP CODE data –  go  HERE to get some “adjectives” about your neighborhood.

4. Bytes daily delivered some art by Kenny Random (HERE) into my inbox (and go here for typewriter art by Paul Smith)

Well that’s all from moi!  Have a great day everyone – and for those in the States – I hope you have a peaceful Thanksgiving.

happy thanksgiving

and for those that are still working on their novel for this month – best wishes – and keep going…. keep going…. xyabc#!#abc!

UPDATES:

#1: Blogger lady-pinkrose posted about her experience with the lake effect storm (that was on TWC in that video) – check out her post HERE, where she says “What all of us here in Lancaster, NY have witnessed, is a Miracle. The tons of snow that was dumped on us in 2 days, was predicted to cause massive flooding. It did not. Because we experienced a slow thaw, right before our very eyes, the snow just seemed to disappear.” Thank God 🙂

#2 Blogger Andrea posted some awesome photos about “Snowvember” in Western New York  (HERE) where she takes through seven days of enduring (and enjoying) the epic winter storm in that area.

She also shared this cool video HERE – and go to the 32 second mark – to see the snow MOVE in….

    1. thanks restless one – and it is hard to keep track of “when it is” because it changes every year because it is on the fourth Thursday of November. A lot of folks were saying how “late” it felt this year…. have a great weekend

    1. Ha – thanks Indah – and I still laugh at that -= but it makes sense when you think about it – with those power noses they have – and it reminds me of the old movie called “Shaggy Dog” – where the dog goes crazy when different smells come into the house – 🙂 ❤

      1. LOL! I wonder about the old version of the movie..I have watched the movie by Tim Allen – I think, it is called Shaggy Dog as well..but I guess it must have been different story..

      2. well I am not sure – but I know the tim allen version is a modified copy of the first one – and so now I am curious too 🙂

  11. The street art is pure joy Yvette, definitely no graffiti on those walls. The music you choose for your delightful video had me swaying along with the melody, perfect choice. Hope you have a happy Thanksgiving day and the weather is not too cold.

    1. Jack – I am truly honored – thanks so much! And while I try not to spend too much time on videos – I know the music is a key part and so I do think about it – and for this one I knew I wanted “instrumental” and well, had this song from an old art lesson and was so glad that it fit rather easily…. thanks so much again and have a great weekend amigo

        I found instrumental was easy than finding appropriate vocal backing. All the best 😄
